Realm Reborn = downgrade?

None of your arguments have the slightest relevance to what I am talking about. None of those issues have any relation to what I'm talking about. I am talking about the visual animation, the frames, the weight, not the lag. The animation does not cause the lag, regardless of if it's called "animation lock". The coding causes the lag. You can fix all the lock issues with engine adjustments and increase battle pace without getting rid of the quality of the animation.

in no sentence i spoke about lags or somethin.

and i dont think that the "gathering" animations which we have in the current version are special or somethin... i mean he swang his pick once a minute for 2-3 seconds... wow.. such an amazing animation.. you think these animations are superior? sorry , i need to laugh...

have you even watched my link? dont think so. you got blind over the years, thats it.
these animations... these unfluent gameplay (which has much to do with animation lock and animations that lasts for 3-5 seconds) causes players at the release to leave the game. but you seem to forget about it. you cant make 5 seconds of animation when you want to make the game less static. you cant do other actions while the animation... and it would kinda look silly to perform a 5 second animation while moving, too.

besides that i dont think that the animations which we saw in the trailer are as good as in the recent version. (PLD WS as an example)

you people just seem to "back pedal" ... you want to have tanakas version back.. which really isnt good.
and for me the current system (long animations, animation lock) makes no fun to me, too. the only thing i continue is 2.0. and not the current game experience, for sure.

Compared to the ones in the live letter, yes.

so you enjoy choppy cartoonish animations? ah k ;XD
the way a asura works and back pedals is just disgusting ;XD

and... alpha =/ release version. bb

and... alpha =/ release version. bb

We had all the "alpha =/ release" BS already, care to read my previous post completely instead of picking parts out of context? The reps confirmed the animations we have now are going away, so no, your excuse doesn't work.

Keep trolling. We had all the "alpha =/ release" BS already, care to read previous post completely instead of picking parts out of context? The reps confirmed the animations we have now are going away, so no, your excuse doesn't work.

you dont want the game to change. thats the thing.

"keep all animations... i dont want to have changes" thats what it sound to me like.


you forgot that thousands of players left the game... and mostly the ff11 veterans stayed. thats for a reason. either you accept changes or not. the game experience cant change if it stays the same. and SE is developing the game and NOT U... and either you play it first and complain afterwards or just stfu

sorry but im pissed off.. this thread is full of ignorance, stupidy, presumptions and flaming.. based on alpha footage. and that they mentioned that old animations are going away, doesnt mean that they cant improve the new animations.. what they are going to do, for sure.

No, I want the game to change. For the better. Not for the worse.

You just lost the rest of your credibility. Are you seriously claiming FFXIV failed due to motion captured animations? Are you insane? The game failed at release because of

- no content except leves
- exp fatigue
- ancient and clunky UI design
- wrong game engine choice
- extreme paranoia resulting in all things being server side
- extreme lag resulting from -^
- high specs demand

all of the above does NOT include animation, which is the current topic, so like I said, keep trolling.

ah come on....

all of the above does NOT include animation, which is the current topic, so like I said, keep trolling.

the only guys that flaming and trolling the forums are you.. based on youtube clips. should i tell you something more?...

and animations have been part of the combat experience. because they last THAT long.. which is inacceptable for a speed paced combat. i cant even look anymore at my "chaotic thrust" animation any longer..

and it wont fit to speedy pvp as well. shorter animations does not mean worse.


but madamme mimm (you) fortold us the future, it seems.

I am clearly talking to someone that regrettably has no clue what he's talking about, on several different levels. Not going to bother anymore.
